Han Shimou

Chapter 689

Cao Cao pacified Jizhou, and Yuan Shao's civil servants surrendered, those who died died, and those who fled.This former Yuan family base "Jizhou" has actually become Cao Cao's jurisdiction.

One day, Cao Cao led all the civil and military officers and generals to personally sacrifice to Yuan Shao's tomb. They prayed again and cried very sadly. Seeing Cao Cao's attitude, it was like losing a brother of flesh and blood.

Cao Cao had no pretense, and he cried with sincerity. He remembered that he, Wen Han, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Xu You were in Wangyue Tower back then. Why drive the world.

Cao cao thought about it, and Gu said that all the officials said.

"When I was in Wangyue Tower in the past, five people, Benchu, Bufan, Gonglu, and Wenyuan, and I discussed how to drive the world, and each had their own opinions. Gonglu first said that the world is driven by blood. Benchu ​​said, use power Drive the world. Wen Yuan seconded. Bufan said that the world is driven by public opinion. I said that the world is driven by interests.

More than 20 years have passed.Gonglu and Benchu ​​are dead, and Ziyuan is under my command.Today, only me and Bufan are still demonstrating the truth.

Neither blood nor power can drive the world.The thing that drives the world is for profit, or for public opinion, or neither.I don't know either.But one day, when the world is at peace, the world will finally know. "

Thinking back to the past, Dong Zhuo wreak havoc on the Han Dynasty, with strong soldiers and strong horses, and his power was as powerful as the sea.Benchu ​​asked me when I joined forces with Benchu. 'If the matter is left unedited, what is the basis for it? '

We asked. 'What do you want to do with one step? 'There was an answer at the beginning. "I am based on the river in the south, block the Yan Dynasty in the north, and the people of the desert, and fight in the south to fight for the world. Can the common people help?" 'I also answered. 'I promise to use the benefits of the world to obtain the intelligence of the world, and to control it with the Tao, and I can do anything. 'This remark is like yesterday, but now that the beginning is lost, I can't help but shed tears! "

After Cao Cao finished speaking, his face was full of tears. In the past, the Fourth Young Master of Luoyang, Yuan Gonglu was killed by him himself, and Yuan Benchu ​​was forced to die step by step by him.As for Xu You, he was proud of his talents and indulged in his meritorious deeds, and he didn't even take Cao Cao, the lord, seriously.Cao Cao also had murderous intentions towards him.

When Cao Cao revealed his true feelings, all civil and military officials sighed.Only Xu You laughed coldly and shouted from the side.

"Yuan Benchu, don't blame me. It's because you disregarded the old friendship and benevolence first, so I switched to Aman. Now I help Aman take your family business, and you asked for it!!!"

As soon as Xu You's words came out, not only Zhang Jai, Gao Lan, Shen Pei and other former Yuan Shao's old officials, but even Cao Cao's subordinates and military men all had expressions of anger.Dian Wei hated this disloyal person the most, and wanted to scold Xu You when he had an evil look.But it was blocked secretly by Cao Cao.Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, and looked at Xu You with a strong killing intent hidden in his eyes.

After Cao Cao paid homage, he rewarded Yuan's wife Liu Shi with gold, silk, food and rice. The rewards were so large that the Yuan family could squander it for more than a hundred years.Then Cao Cao gave another order.

"The residents of Hebei suffered from the military revolution, and they were exempted from rent and tax for three years."

A few days after the incident, Dian Wei and Xu Chu had just finished patrolling the people Cao Cao had sent, and they galloped into the east gate to meet Xu You.In other words, since the establishment of Jizhou, Xu You was arrogant and rude, unable to look up, Cao Cao didn't like it, and gradually alienated him.Xu You didn't know what was wrong, and he was depressed, so he was drinking at the east gate, shouting at passers-by, talking about his merits, trying to attract Cao Cao's attention and remind Cao Cao of his kindness.

At this time, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were passing.Seeing Xu You drinking and indulging in the east gate, both of them were displeased, but because of Xu You's meritorious service, the two held back their anger for the time being, ignored Xu You, and rode past.

Unexpectedly, when Xu You saw Dian Wei and Xu Chu, the two famous people around Cao Cao, they got drunk together and shouted at the door.

"You wait without me, can An Neng come in and out of this door?"

Dian Wei glared evilly, pointed at Xu You with his horsewhip, and shouted loudly.

"I waited for thousands of lives, fought bloody battles, and won the city regardless of life and death. How dare you boast about it? It's all because of you!"

Unexpectedly, when Xu You heard this, he became angry and cursed at Dian Wei.

"You are all worthless! If there is no other way, if you burn Wuchao, the Amman army will have been wiped out by Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses because of the exhaustion of people and food! All of you have been captured by Yuan Shao long ago!! "

"Big words!!! I won't kill!!!"

Dian Wei had endured Xu You's behavior for a long time, but at this time Xu You cursed, which immediately ignited the anger in Dian Wei's heart. Dian Wei was furious and wanted to kill Xu You as soon as he pulled the reins.At this time, Xu Chu firmly held Dian Wei's rein, and with a cold face, he whispered a few words quickly in Dian Wei's ear.Dian Wei wanted to struggle hard, but after hearing Xu Chu's words, he gradually calmed down.

"What! Dian E is here, you dare to kill me!!?"

Xu You was startled when he saw Dian Wei's rage, and then saw Xu Chu stop him, presumably Xu Chu was afraid that Dian Wei would kill him, and Dian Wei was severely punished by Cao Cao and lost his head, so he persuaded him, and he was confident After a little more time, he actually shouted at Dian Wei.Dian Wei was so angry that his muscles and bones were twitching, while Xu Chu laughed and got off his horse and walked towards Xu You.

"Haha! Sir, don't blame me, you are right. Without Mr., how could my lord defeat Yuan Shao and win Jizhou. Mr. has made such great achievements. I saw Mr. just now, but I didn't get off my horse and salute. It is really wrong. Come on, Sir, I will treat you to a banquet right now, and I have the right to make amends!"

"Slow down! Xu Zhongkang, I don't know what is good or bad, and I offend you by speaking rudely. I should be the first to invite this banquet!"

At some point, Dian Wei also dismounted from his horse, and shouted angrily.Xu Chu pretended not to do so, quickly grabbed Xu You's hand, and waited for Xu You to leave.Dian Wei rushed to him and grabbed Xu You's hand, wanting to seize it.

"Come on Dian E, do you know the principle of first come first, first come first? I invite you first, and you should come to my banquet!!"

"Xu Zhongkang, don't fight me, my military rank is higher than yours, sir should come to my banquet!!"

Xu Chu pulls left, Dian Wei pulls right, to fight for Xu You.When Xu You saw Dianwei and Xu Chu inviting a banquet to make amends, Xu You was secretly happy at first, but as Dianwei and Xu Chu exerted more force, Xu You's face was distorted in pain, and Xu You felt that something was wrong.

"Wow!! It hurts me too!! Wait for the two of you, let go quickly!!!"

Xu You let out a scream, which caused many soldiers to come.At this moment, Dian Wei and Xu Chu looked at each other, and shouted angrily, Dian Wei actually used [-]% of the dragon elephant's strength, and Xu Chu also used [-]% of the huge force, the two pulled together with all their might, Xu You There was another roar of pain, followed by a rapid and terrifying tearing sound, and Xu You's weak body was torn in half by the two of them!

Silk! ! !Silk! ! ! ! !Silk! ! !Snapped! ! ! !

Dian Wei and Xu Chu each grabbed half of Xu You's body and retreated violently. A large pool of blood rushed into the air and then fell. Xu You's internal organs were scattered all over the ground.The soldiers who came from all around were startled and froze.

Afterwards, Cao Cao learned of the matter. Cao Cao heard that Dian Wei and Xu Chuyu were going to invite Xu You to a banquet. The two competed and tore Xu You in two.Cao Cao was furious, and he reprimanded the two of them deeply, and at the same time asked them why they wanted to kill Xu You.Cao Cao is so smart, of course Dian Wei and Xu Chu's small drama can't fool Cao Cao.

"Xu You is so rude, so we will kill him together."

Dian Wei and Xu Chu told the whole story. The reason why Xu Chu didn't let Dian Wei kill Xu You openly and angrily was that he pretended to kill him.There is no other reason, but it is afraid of disturbing people's hearts.After all, there are many advisors and generals in Cao Cao's tent at this time, like Xu You, from Yuan Shao. If Dian Wei kills Xu You openly, it will make these Yuan Shao's old officials panic. It was inevitable that Dian Wei would have to be punished heavily.

"Ziyuan and I are old friends, so we play each other's ears. How can you plan to kill him just because he made a slip of the tongue! For today's matter, I have the right to punish you and the others for one year's salary, and each of you will be demoted by a rank. If there is another crime in the future, you and the other two will be beheaded!!"

Even though Cao Cao said so, since Xu You's ruthless words when worshiping Yuan Shao, in fact Cao Cao had murderous intentions towards him.Therefore, I didn't blame Dian Wei and Xu Chu in my heart, the deep reprimand and scolding before were just a play.

Afterwards, Cao Cao ordered Xu You to be buried generously.And Dian Wei and Xu Chu were also notorious among the Cao army because of this incident. From then on, Cao Cao was a civil servant, and whenever he saw Dian Wei and Xu Chu coming to a banquet at the same time, he ran away without saying a word, which can be said to be frightening. .However, few people mourned Xu You's death.Of course, this has something to do with Xu Youping's personality.

Later, Cao Cao sent people to visit the sages in Jizhou.The people of Jizhou, the recommended cavalry captain Cui Yan, whose style name is Jigui, was also from Wucheng, east of the Qing Dynasty.This number once offered advice to Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao refused, so he was disheartened and stayed at home with illness.Cao Cao called Cui Yan to work for the state, and called it Taoism.

"Yesterday, according to the household registration of this state, there are a total of 30 people, which can be called a big state."

Cui Yan saw that Cao Cao was only focused on counting the population, regardless of the current evil situation in Jizhou, so he kept admonishing him day after day.

"Today the world is falling apart, the states are divided, the two Yuan brothers are fighting each other, and the people of Ji are violent in the wilderness. The prime minister is not in a hurry to ask about customs and save them from suffering, but first counts the school's household registration. How can the scholars and women of this state look forward to Ming Gong?"

When Cao Cao heard the words, he knew that there was a mistake, so he changed his face and thanked him. He treated Cui Yan as the guest of honour, and he often asked him about the stability of Jizhou.

Cao Cao stabilized Jizhou and sent people to find out about Yuan Tan.At that time, Yuan Tan led his troops to plunder Ganling, Anping, Bohai, Hejian and other places. When he heard that Yuan Shang was defeated and left Zhongshan, he led his army to attack them.Yuan Shang had no intention of fighting, so he abandoned the city and fled to Youzhou to join his second brother Yuan Xi.Yuan Tan surrendered all his people and wanted to return to Jizhou.

When Cao Cao saw that Yuan Tan's ambition had not faded away, he was afraid that he would change, so he sent someone to call him, but Yuan Tan would not resist the order.Cao Cao was furious, and wrote a letter refusing to marry him, and that day, he would march to the plains with his own army.

When Yuan Tan heard that Cao Cao had come from the commanding army, he knew he was invincible and sent someone to Liu Biao for help.Liu Biao did not dare to offend Cao Cao lightly, so he asked Liu Bei to discuss.Seeing that Cao Cao's attack on Hebei was unstoppable at this time, Liu Bei persuaded him.

"Cao Cao has now broken Jizhou, and his army is in full swing. The Yuan brothers will soon be captured by Cao Cao, and it will be useless to save them. Moreover, Cao Cao often has the intention of spying on Jingxiang. When the battle in Hebei is certain, he will definitely overthrow and attack. Now Let us gather momentum quickly, raise our troops to defend ourselves, and do not move rashly."

Liu Bei's words can be said to have reached Liu Biao's heart, Liu Biao nodded repeatedly, and asked again.

"So, how should I thank you?"

Liu Bei thought for a while, and said quickly.

"You can make a letter with the Yuan brothers, in the name of reconciliation, and thank you politely." Liu Biao obeyed Liu Bei's words, and immediately followed his words, and sent someone to send a letter to Yuan Tan.
